Hexvessel release music video for ‘Son Of The Sky’

January 19, 2019 Harriet Anderson

HEXVESSEL have released a brand new music video!

The video, for the track Son Of The Sky, is taken from the band’s upcoming fourth album All Tree, which is scheduled for release in February.

Speaking about the video, vocalist Mat McNerney says, “this video for our new song Son Of the Sky is a collection of family home movies that we made when we were celebrating Winter Solstice at Avebury, offering a sacrifice at an ancient pine tree called Timin Mänty here in Finland and when visiting various pagan sites in England and Germany. As with HEXVESSEL’s music, it is a story of our personal spiritual journey. Son Of the Sky is a song about a traditional Finnish Karhunpeijaiset ritual celebration where the spirit of the bear was venerated after a hunt. It’s a song about tradition, community and family. Rituals are enactments of mythology, and stories that have been passed down from our ancestors. When we become part of this great tradition, we become aware of our origins and the meaning of life. Family, culture and kin are so important. It’s our community that connects us to the earth, that gives us a sense of purpose, understanding and place in the world. It is through that wisdom of mythology that we will become better able to survive and prosper.”
